Most of us are both horrified and fascinated by the dark psychology of serial killers and predators who dominate headlines and true crime documentaries. But what if the psychopath wasn't on the news? What if they were your spouse, boss, child, parent, date? In Surviving a Psychopath, Kerrie Droban, veteran attorney, award-winning true crime author and expert consultant on criminal pathology, takes readers beyond the sensational cases and into the hidden world of relational psychopathy. Droban reveals how they charm their way into our lives --appearing disarmingly normal, until it's too late.
With chilling clarity and raw vulnerability, Droban exposes the red flags, psychological manipulation, and emotional terrorism inflicted by predators who live among us and cannibalize our lives. They're not insane. They're insanely evil, terrifying calculated, utterly remorseless and masters of disguise.
Surviving a Psychopath is a powerful resource for anyone who's questioned their reality, blamed themselves for another's cruelty, or wondered how to break free from the grip of a predator. Through real-life insights from both sides of the justice system, Droban arms readers with the knowledge and courage to recognize the manipulation before it's too late--and reclaim their lives after devastation.
